Download Virtual BCF2000

Been working collaboratively on a project that Binnit aka Mr Steamshift dreamt up. Its basically a software emulator of the Behringer BCF2000 MIDI Controller which would let you test out stuff on the move.

There are a few caveats for usage so ill just copy in what Binnit wrote as there is no point repeating

There are a few things you need to know:-

1. It requires MidiPipe or similar; this is because it doesn?¢¬Ä¬ôt act as a midi endpoint in and of itself – it requires an application to do that for it.
2. Because of the origin of the application, it is designed to work in a very specific way; it is designed to mimic the way that the BCF2000 controller works once you have applied Steve Mokris?¢¬Ä¬ô Quartz Composer Sysex files. In short, this basically maps all of the buttons (barring the encoder group buttons) as midi controllers.

Usage

First launch MidiPipe and create a new pipe – with just a midi in element and a midi out element. Then launch the BCF2000 application; you can now select the MidiPipe midi input from the drop down list. For control of Garageband, for example, that?¢¬Ä¬ôs all you have to do.

Enjoy (and if you use it let us know how we can make it better). SteamSHIFT out.

Future versions *may* let you change the MIDI channel for each control and possibly (unlikely!) act as a standalone MIDI endpoint, thus removing the need for MidiPipe.

If you find it useful let us know

P.S. This uses the MIDI class I wrote for my AutoSampler application (Automatically creates EXS24 patches from hardware), that may now actually make it to completion!
